Read the following paragraph and answer the questions that follow. ‘A p-n junction is formed from a piece of semiconductor by diffusing P-type material to one half side and n-type material to other half side. The plane dividing the two zones is known as a junction. As p-type material has igh concentration of holes and n-type material has high concentration of free lectrons, there is a tendency of holes to diffuse over to n-side and electrons to p-side. This process is known as diffusion. Some of the diffused holes combine with electrons and become neutral. Similarly, some of the diffused clectrons combine with holes and are neutralised. A region is thus formed, ‘which is known as depletion layer or charge free region. The diffusion of hholes and electrons continues till a potential barrier is developed which prevents further diffusion or neutralisation. This fictitious battery gives rise to electric field that prevents the respective majority charge carriers from erossing the barrier region. The potential barrier is of the order of 0.1 volt to 0.3 volt. (j) In the process of diffusion, (a) the tendency of holes is to diffuse over n-side and electrons to p-side.
